The DC8 unit easily powers 4 12" airstones in my 960 gallon tank that is 2 feet deep, plus 4 air curtain diffusers I buried under my gravel grow beds for my Aquaponics setup.
I use this off a 125 amp-hour marine battery, and it gives me around 60 hours of run time. I use a transformer and relay hooked to the 110 power cord to keep the relay open. When the power cuts out, the relay closes and completes the DC circuit.
This is a great unit, and I could easily transport my fish in a large tank in the back of the truck just by running a line from the car battery.

This air compressor is awesome! We use it to transport live animals (lobsters, shrimp, prawns, etc) caught or purchased all over the island to our laboratories. It provides strong aeration and is an excellent back up to electrical pumps during a power outage. (Updated on 12/8/2008.)
